I have a feeling Graham Hancock won't be making a video celebrating this.

"I saw the video and what if a bird flew by and one of the shipwrecked used a paper clip and squid ink to write a message to attach to the bird's leg to get a message to Suriname so they could continue their mission?"

This is my shocked face.

These people are truly at the bottom of the bin. It’s insulting to rubbish to call them rubbish.

Nota bene: immigration status is a very common means by which domestic abusers exert control.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.

I'm a USMMA grad and resigned from USAF as an O-4. There is nothing more critical to the US Armed Services than the trust of the American People.

All of these deployments into cities are being determined unlawful by courts. At this point, it's manifestly illegal.

You must ignore unlawful orders.

This really isn’t hard, people. Either you favor violence against those with whom you disagree;

Or, you’re not a Nazi.

Pick one.

"Taken At The Flood - : ensuring sustainable heritage strategies for green energy development in the North Sea" project looks interesting.

Funded by AHRC, and led by @vincegaffney.bsky.social from Uni of Bradford.

No, Marge needs burgundy hair. That purple is all wrong. And her face shape demands an off center nostril piercing, perhaps with an emerald, not a septum piercing. I could also recommend some amazing Celtic designs for a chest piece, maybe?

Bill Clinton was the most powerful man in the world, and Monica Lewinsky was an intern and his subordinate, and in any other workplace that would be called sexual harassment, and if you don't take power dynamics into account when you talk about things like this, you don't actually understand consent

Your only possible response, when confronted with someone saying this, is to wait for them to finish, firmly state β€œWhat the actual fuck is wrong with you?” and leave the interview immediately.
